Perris Elementary School District

What Perris Elementary School District does

Perris Elementary School District is a public K-8 school district headquartered in Perris, California, operating 11 school sites that serve students from preschool through 8th grade within the Perris Valley of Riverside County. The district provides free public education across a portfolio that includes traditional elementary schools (K-6), the Innovative Horizons Charter School (K-8), the Rob Reiner Children & Families Development Center (preschool), the Young Explorers Academy (TK), and Sky View Elementary (TK-8). Instructional programming includes a Dual Language Immersion pathway at Sky View, GATE services for gifted students, Title I intervention programs, and a Social Emotional Learning (SEL) Superpowers initiative launching for the 2025-26 school year. The district also operates Expanded Learning Opportunities Programs in partnership with Elevo Learning, providing after-school tutoring, Saturday enrichment, and summer STEAM camps.

The technology stack is a layered set of third-party vendor platforms supporting instructional delivery, student data management, family engagement, and operations: Aeries for the Student Information System and parent portal, ClassLink for single sign-on, Illuminate for assessment and analytics, Raptor for visitor management, Thrillshare and Rooms for district-wide and teacher-level communication, Peachjar for digital flyer distribution, Destiny for library management, Spiceworks for IT service management, AESOP for substitute planning, and Facilitron for facilities work orders. A custom Perris ESD mobile app (built on Apptegy) extends the parent engagement channel to iOS and Android. There is no indication of proprietary AI/ML development; all platforms are commercially licensed.

As a California government state entity, the district does not generate commercial revenue. Operating funds flow primarily from California's Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF/LCAP) based on Average Daily Attendance and demographic factors, supplemented by federal Title I and Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) grants, federal nutrition reimbursement, and voter-approved general-obligation bonds (Measures C and S) for capital projects. Governance is provided by an elected five-member Board of Trustees, with Bruce Bivins serving as Superintendent. The customer base is the resident family population within the district's attendance boundary — enrollment is site-based or centralized through the district office, with no tuition charged for K-6 education.
